lives had been passed in peace could be employed in its<br />

erection. p. 65, Para. 5, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

2. -- THE TEMPLE BUILT AFTER A PATTERN. p. 66, Para. 1,<br />

[<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

Nevertheless to David was given, by the Spirit of God, an<br />

accurate pattern of the temple, and all things pertaining<br />

thereto, just as Moses had received the pattern of the tabernacle<br />

in the wilderness of Sinai. This we find in 1<br />

Chron. 28:11, and onward. In verse 19, David ways: "All<br />

this the Lord made me understand in writing by his hand<br />

upon me, even all the works of this pattern." p. 66, Para.<br />

2, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

Besides thus receiving the pattern, it was permitted him<br />

to make also abundant preparation for the coming building.<br />

Its erection was committed to his son Solomon, and to him<br />

and the princes, David gave the following solemn charge<br />

concerning this work: "Now set your heart and your soul to<br />

seek the Lord your God; arise therefore, and build ye the<br />

sanctuary of the Lord God, to bring the ark of the covenant<br />

of the Lord, and the holy vessels of God, into the house<br />

that is to be built to the name of the Lord." 1 Chron.<br />

22:19. This temple was to be built on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem.<br />

p. 66, Para. 3, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

Again: 1 Chron. 28:10: "Take heed now; for the Lord hath<br />

chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary; be strong<br />

and do it." p. 66, Para. 4, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

Mark, it was the sanctuary for which provision was thus<br />

carefully being made, -- the sanctuary, of which David had<br />

seen the pattern, for which he had made ready his material,<br />

and concerning which he gave this charge. p. 67, Para. 1,<br />

[<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].<br />

The intimate connection of the temple with its prototype,<br />

the tabernacle, is shown in the general arrangement and<br />

furniture of the building. Like the tabernacle, it had its<br />

holy and its most holy place. But these, in all their dimensions<br />

-- length, breadth, and height -- were exactly<br />

double those of the tabernacle. Thus the most holy place<br />

was twenty cubits each way, instead of ten, and the holy<br />

place twenty by forty cubits, instead of ten by twenty. p.<br />

67, Para. 2, [<strong>LOOK<strong>IN</strong>G</strong>].
